A PROTEST4NT, THE THEATRE. Barabas, the Jew, has suffered injuries from the Maltese Government, has been driven front his house, and stripped of a portion of his property. He determines on revenge, and finds it first in embroiling the Governor's son Lodowich with his daughter's lover, Don Mathias ; they fight, and are both killed. .His ownhead is not unvisited, tor his daughter Abigail retires to a nunnery, and dies of grief for the loss of betrothed. He becomes alarmed for the confession which in dying she had - made ; inveigles the Friar who had become master of Ins share in the duel,to his house, and strangles hint. But he has now been compelled to admit a new accessary, in a Slave' whom he had lately purchased. The Slave is entrapped by a Courtezan and a Robber, and Barahas is now tortured by demands, on Ithamore the Slave's part, for money to keep this secret. The Jew hesitates at nothing which can accom plish his safety or his revenge ; he makes his way to the Courtezan's house in the disguise of a Minstrel, finds the party iu the height of feasting, and puts poison in the wine. The Slave's declaration has brought hint before the Governor, the rack is ordered for Barabas, but before it can be applied, intelligence conies that all the accused and the accusers have died of poison. But Barabas ha's not yet completed his fur- ..' midable course. His draught had been but a *tporific, and on being thrown over the walls as a corpse, he makes his way to the Turks then besieging Malta, introduces them into the town through a secret passage, and is appointed Governor. He is stow at the height of his ambition, hut his revenge has further caprices; and, to extend slaughter, he offers to re-sell the town to its former toasters for a large sum, and the confirmation of his appointment. The terms are agreed on, he concerts the surprise of the Turkish garrison, and the murder of the Turkish Prince at a bangliet. He prepares a sumptuous en tertainment. The Turk conies with his principal Officers ; Barahas descends from the banqueting-room to receive them ; the concerted signal is given, and the hall is filled with Chris tian soldiers ; at the same moment shots are discharged front its gallery, and Barabas falls mortally wounded. The Turks arc now prisoners to the Knights, and the Christian G overnor declares that the Jew bad been shot by his cadet, as a means of preventiog the massacre of the Turkish Officers, and us a punishment fur his own incorrigible treaehery. The Prologue ras spoken by BERNARD, in which, in our opinion, the name ot KEAN was unne cessarily introduced. The Epilogue was delivered by Mrs. BAtrLsy, with as much effect as the-cum position admitted.

Mr. GURNEY moved for a Rule to shew cause why a Lady, who has brought actions against se veral Weekly and Daily Newspapers for Libels, should not give security for costs. This applica tion was made on several atfida . vits, stating that the plaintiff is living separate from her husband, and that she brought those actions without his (her husband's) consent.—Mr. Justice ABBOT, %silo sat before the other Judges came into Court, observed, that Mr. Gurney, having stated suffi cient special matter, was entitled to a Rule to shew cause.—Rule granted. Mr. BETTY has received front America the of fer of an unprecedented sum to visit the Theatres of_New York, Philadelphia, &c. upon a twelve months' tour. - Previous to !di departure from England, he visits the Bath stage for four nights. (Bath Herald.) The curiosities of antiquity sent by the Bey of TRIPOLI for the PRINCE REGENT, were removed yesterday from the Weymouth store-ship, at Deptford, to the Tower. f rt is very creditable to the Managers of Drury- Lane Theatre, that, in a dearth of novel meric they revive those pieces iihiclr were formerly po pular. We wish, however, that they were more fortunate in their selection, The Jew of Malta, which is ascribed to CHRISTOPE4 ER 111ARLOE, d Poet high among his contvmporaries, was brought forward last night, and though divested of its more forbidding and terrific features, it is still too violent, and so different from the compositions of later days, that they are rather revolting than con ciliatory to the taste and feelings of the present As this play was not brought forward till many years atter the death of the Author, though he was high in populatity during his life, it may be doubted whether it was really his work, as there could be no reason for the delay. But whether its authenticity was doubted at the time is more than can now be ascertained. It is a tale of horror, even with the alterations and suppressions which have taken place. If the chief object was to bring forth Mr. KEAN in a character exactly suited to his talents, and the oeculidiityof his acting, the purpose has been fully. .accomplished, as he sustains the hero of the piece wi.li his usual ability and with powerful expression. The rest of the characters were well assigned, and the piece is brought forward with great shew and magnifi cence of costume and scenery. It was received with great applause by a numerous audience ; and Mr. KEAN, in particular, hardly ever had a more enthusiastic reception. 14e displayed musical taste in a song which was so much admired that it was universally encored. We base, as usual, given the Plot to gratify the curiosity - of our Readers in general, and to enable those of a more critical character to compare the alterations with the Play in its original structure : P 0! R THIRD EPISTLE TO THE EDINBURGH REVIEWERS Ecce iterum Crispinus. Again it- is my will and pleasure, TO change my 111411fier and my measure ; And save you fronts satiety, By giving you variety : Why does CEitvANTEs so delight ? Because, before we're tir'd of Knight, lie is relies 'd by S anc h o Pauza. Some time ago, in four-lin'd stanza, Ca inconsistency-progression, I did, and needs must make confession, Give you, ReviewerS dread, to grace In climax the Omega place. There I did call you inconsistent; And is there one who will not this grant, If gifted with enough of brains To know what inconsistent means ? Compound of " Sistens ' " and of C o n, Revers'A by In—it can by tone ruisconceiv'd—who are but pat in The simple elements of Latin. What from such knowledge then should hinder You, who can e'en see faults.in PrxlMa ? who of coarse can chatter Greek " As naturally as pigs squeak ?" Yet should it pose you—to some whelp Of Pt WAN'S school apply for help: Whose verse, harmonious as High Dutch, Surpass'd, you said, the Southerns much, And had, in contest, fairly beaten. The Strains of Westminster and Eton. Ask, and you'll hear without delay, That inconsistent things are they Which in a strict and literal sense - Cannot together stand—and hence, By metaphor,-is us'd the word For what is strange, uncouth, absurd As legs by ar ms , and arms by legs Companiou'd—Leat laying eggs— A horse's neck on human head— Gold form'd by Alchymist from lead—.A modest woman dancing waltz, Or any woluan without faults— A lord at plough —at. Court a farmer— A puss in boots, or hog in armour— Or, what would still be greater wonder, Scotch Critics With one grain of candour. You, crabbed Edinhtirgbian elves, Nut inconsistent with yourselves. But stop—take you the Devil's due. You are consistent—yes—'tis true, In one, and that the Devil's plan, Of doing all the harm you can. So far you are—how far you're not, To strew the world is now my lot; And, as I wish to stand aloof Front bare assertion without proof, I now will try to prove the question By circumstance and plain suggestions. Thus I begin then to unmask you— Suppose some querist now should ask you, (14iterist, you know, means one that's queer, And will not by your rudder steer) Suppose he now should ask aloud— You're honest friends ? sure that's allow'd— You England love ? to our heart's core— You'd have her flourish ? more and more— Think you her hallow'd Constitution Would need a frenzied Revolution ? No—no—we deprecate a storm, And ask but moderate &form. Such your professions—what your deeds? (For actions oft sqltare not with creeds). Your• country's standards were unfurl'd To save, if so she might, the world.— You strove, by cavil and chicane, To make your country's efforts rain. In that dread strife your country won High fame, by deeds of glory done— You strove to tarnish that high fame By sneer, and scoff, and treacherous blame. Assail.'d at once by fraud and force, Your Country held a stedfast rSe ; Brave were her armies and her fleets,And yet she sometimes Wet defeats. 1.10,61 as these were, you made them worse, And seem'd to joy io cads reverse: Ndt satisfied with present ill, You tried your prophecying skill, And strove tostrike our Rulers dumb By threats of evils yet to come. To foes without—a crying sin, You strove to add worse foes within— /tad thus to paralize by faction Your haraSs s il Country's powers of action. Yet you your Coiiiitry love—you say— Yes—as a Lion loves hisirrey, Who holds it tilm in his embraces,— For what?—to tear its frame to pieces.,„ 'Tis Lions then that make this diti— Say, rather, .I , :ses in their skin— And you for roar their bray mistake. No—let us not our course forsake; Truth-speakers we—not mere deriders-- Not Lions they—but his providers— These barking pests—of good these lack-alls— In truth were BunsarAirries Jackal's. Would they were shaming his mishap, • Caught in the St. Helena trap, • Thus, with him prisan'd in his den, They might regret their Country then, And in that tropic clime far distaat, Moan) they had not been more consistent. The Querist now renews his search— Pray,' tell me, du you love the Church ? With hesitation, and wry face or two, At last you answer —yes—w e do. Now let us see how you abuse, How ill its three great branches use. Which we, like SWIFT, for shortness sake, _ Will Pc - rEtt, JourN, and Marcus make. " PErmes a persecuting dog—, " MARTIN, at once the stork and log— " Aud JACK a savage Ragamotha, " Who, like the others, rules by cuffing.

Nay, whilst reviewing Maui's book, You would nut spare the pastry-cook, And said his style had all the heat Of soup, and was as custard sweet— Seems this fit conduct in your sight ? Was this consistent, just and right ? Then came a minor—and his book Presented with a suppliant look— In rain the humble plea he urg'd ; Ile was the more severely Scourg'd— Call'd stripling, witling, silly Lord, For whom contempt were fit reward— Soon the same Stripling writes again— Now honey trickled ffom his pen. He was a hard of highest cast, Who far all modern hzrds surpased--.. fley day —why this is mighty strange— From whence proceeded this great change? How did the bard contrive to cure The malice of the Scotch Reviewer ? 'By flattery, bride, or sop in pan? Nu, by a more effectual plan— By satire he the Critics shain'd— By satire's lash the Critics taui'd— Till whipt out all their gall and heat. They croych'd like dogs, and lick'd his f e et. " Ah me ! wh a t perils do environ " The man that meddles with cold iron !" So BUTLER says —but I—Lord BYrtoN! With his dread name I close this letter, And hope my next will prove much better. EAST INDIA INTELLIGENCE. PROM THE BENGAL IdURKARU, • OP NOV. 29. The chief article of intelligence, which-ha, this week reached us, is the new attitude which Matters have soddenly assumed on the western side of the Peninsula. It appears that acts of hostility have been committed against a division of the British troops at Poonah, and that a large force, in horse, is assembling in that quarter. lit conseq lence, the division of Colonel Lionel Smith, intended for another 4eryice, had marched upon Poonah. . The movements of the troops on the Nerbudda have been influenced by, these occurrences. IVe have plea sure to state, that his Excellency Sir Thomas Hislop joined the army at Hurdah on the 10th inst. His Excellency had directed that three troops of cavalry and a battalion of infantry should march Drum Husseioabad for Nagpore, for the security of that capital. In consequence the first battalion - 221 regiment Native Infantry and three troops of the 6:lt Cavalry, with the gallopers of the regi ment, would march on the 12thowder Lieutenant uolonel Gahan, f•r Nagpore. It was expect ed th e remainder of the Ifirsseinabad force Would cross the Nerhudda on the 14th, with the ex ception of the first battalion 10th • regiment, which would remain at that station. The con tingent of the Berar Rajah. amounts to 3,000 horse and 2,000 foot, and was assembled in the vicinity of Nagpore preparatory to marching on service. This force is under the superintendence of Major Agnew. The Madras battalions are can-. toned on very high ground, about three miles from - the Residency, and the detachment. of the 6th re giment Bengal Naive Cavalry about seven miles on the slope of a bill. Much rain had ftdlen its that quarter in the beginning of this month, The right of the army, under Major-General Dunkin, arrived at Dholpoor on the 9th. On the opposite•side of the Chotabul,. a small guard of Scindia's troops -were stationed. The division under General Dunkin remained at Dliolpoor on the 12(11 ; but it was expected that it would move on the 13th, keeping along the left bank of the Chumbul. Whether it might afterwards proceed towards Jaypore, or to the Southward, appeared uncertain. The corps composing this division are very strong. Hi,s Majesty's 14th Foot, 950 rank and file, Bth Dragoons, and Ist Native Cavalry, 600 each. Three complete Sepoy battalions, 1400 Gartlner's Horse, and 1200 Blaurtpore. We have received a melancholy account of the fatal effects of the prevailing epidemic in the cen tre division of the army. It is stated that 400 natives had fallen a sactifice to it in two days, nor has it been there confined to the natives eight Europeans had fallen victims to it. Letters of the 16th mention, that after a rather long march the preceding (lay, many' Europeans had been attacked, and that the whole road during the march was strewed with dead and dying na tives. An officer remarks, '' I ant fortunate in having lost only two servants." The accounts of the 17th are still more affUcting. The number of deaths reported on that day amounted to 500 natives, and 29 Enropeans. Only two officers had been attacked, and had speedily recovered. The chief mortality was among the camp-followers and the Sepoys accustomed to poor fare. LUndanntn, with brandy, - was gene- tally successful when adicinistered in time, and calomel completed the cure. The following statement of mortality from this disease, many yews ago, 'is said to rest ou high medical authority : At one of the great Mullahs held at Hordwaretry twelfth year, in the month . of April, 'a sudden blast of cold air from the hills, which came down the course of the Ganges, pro (limed so fatal and violent a cholera morbus, that 20,000 persons perished in the course of three or tour days. Great as this number is, it will not appear incredible, when it is known that nearly a million of people are supposed to he collected.— hi common years the number at the Lair is esti-, mated . at 300,000. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM CUTTACK. " Massaub Khalil), one of the jugbundoo's Chief Sirdars, has been killed, and another, Gun• uaiss, severely wounded in the breast. The dif ferent detachments have been hunting Jugbundoo in every jungle where he attempts to halt, and the general opinion is, that he cannot escape much longer," • - INSURRECTION AT CEYLON. We are unable to acid any thing to the follow ing notice of an insurrection at Ceylon, which has appeared in the Gorernment Gazette, and therefore give it without recasting, its order to form a new paragraph " We are concerned to, state, that accounts have been received from Ceylon of an insurrection having taken place in the interior of that island, the object of the insurgents being to place one of the family of the deposed King on the Throne of Candy. It is to be lamented that one of the civil servants in that province has fallen a victim to the fury of the assembled rabble. We have no fur• Cher particulars of this melancholy event." (From the S ipplement to the Oriegtal Star, N0v.29.) Major-General Donkin, with the right of the army, left Agra on the sth, and expected to reach Dholpore on the left bank of the Chumbul, on the 8111. On that day, the centre division was only a few miles distant from the encampment of Scindia. There was a report, that his Highness intended to pay a visit to the Marquis of Hastings on the 10th, in a style of great magnificence. The Bhurtpore Rajah, whawas said to haVe manifested great alarm on th e fi rs t assem bli ng o f our army, has ftWnished his contingent in support of the common cause made against the Pindaree hordes. Twelve hundred of his cavalry are said to have joined General Donkin's division, on the 6th. Sir D.Oehterlony had marched to Rewaree. Since the Ratification of the Treaty with Scin dia, another important event has occurred, which will greatly expedite the objects of the present • confederacy. Meer Khan, well known for his bravery, and the predatory system of war which he pursued, has fortunately been deprived of his power in the provinces. of Joudpore and Jypnre, the former scenes of his exploits and devastation. This enterprising and extraordinary Chief has acceded to the terms offered to hint by the Martinis of Hastings. 'The Rajah of Kerow loy has als6agreed to an amicable arrangement; and engagements with Joudpore and Jypore are ex pected to be iwmediately formcd.—(Government Gazette.)
